Lapsed Time

This artwork depicts a stylized, digital cityscape inspired by user interface (UI) design elements. The buildings, streets, and urban structures are constructed from wireframe layouts, placeholders, and various graphical UI components often seen in web or app design.

Key Features:
1. Buildings as UI Elements: Skyscrapers resemble website mockups or app interfaces, complete with text boxes, image placeholders (indicated by ‘X’ patterns), and profile icons.
2. Central Landmark: A prominent red building with a white steeple stands in the center, evoking a historic or iconic structure amid a highly digital environment.
3. Emotion Icons on Streets: The roads are decorated with smiley and neutral face icons, symbolizing user interactions or feedback.
4. Digital Details: Floating icons, graphs, and infographics are integrated into the structures and surrounding environment.
5. Background Elements: The cityscape includes panels with abstract information and data visualization.
6. Artist Signature: The bottom of the artwork includes a signature, “Pillsbury 2024,” indicating the creator and year of creation.

Theme and Style:

The piece merges traditional urban landscapes with a digital aesthetic, reflecting themes of technology, user experience, and the pervasive nature of digital interfaces in modern life.
